Letter: Left hypocritical on campaign finance

Liberal media had a fit recently when the Supreme Court struck down a campaign-finance regulation.

This controversy points out the contradiction built into the fantastic web of lies promulgated by Democrat myth-makers and their media allies.

The whole world is supposedly indignant about awful, rich people and their evil corporations buying our government with unlimited campaign millions.

It goes without saying such manipulations are exclusively the territory of those damned Republicans.

Democrats, of course, always occupy the moral high ground, defending the poor, the old, the crippled, children, our endangered planet, along with helpless and trusting forest creatures, from predatory billionaires.

The Koch brothers and Michigan's own DeVos family are prominent demonic figures in Democrat lore, but are exceptions to the rule.

A low ball number, hard to measure, puts maybe 80 percent of the super-rich solidly in the Democrat camp.

Not just donors seeking influence, which Democrat politicians encourage, but dyed-in-the-wool genuine liberals.

Taxpayer subsidized activity, including among many others: solar power, windmills, and Tesla Motors barely scratch the surface of liberal billionaire corruption and cronyism.

Picking winners and losers, using force, not free enterprise, is what Democrats do.

Obama gets to have it both ways. He can fake it all day long lecturing about income inequality, laughing at our stupidity all the way to his favorite Wall Street banks.

Exactly who is in who's back pocket? And who do we blame for all this ignorance?
